Stainless Steel Expanded Metal Lath EML 2500mm x 700mm

Stainless Steel Expanded Metal Lath EML 2500mm x 700mm

Product Description

Provide superior anti-crack protection and high-performance render reinforcement with this Stainless Steel Expanded Metal Lath (EML) 2500mm x 700mm. Manufactured from high-grade stainless steel, this heavy-duty plastering mesh is engineered specifically for external rendering applications, damp environment installations, and high-exposure timber frame structures.

Unlike standard galvanized lath, premium stainless steel expanded metal lath offers maximum resistance against corrosion, moisture, and chemical degradation. The precision-cut diamond mesh design provides a strong mechanical key for base coat plasters and renders, preventing shrinkage, surface cracking, and joint splitting across brick, block, concrete, and timber substrates.

Whether you are reinforcing external render systems, strengthening wall-to-ceiling junctions, or applying plaster behind timber frames, this 2500mm x 700mm expanded metal sheet ensures long-lasting structural stability and a smooth, professional finish.

Key Features & Benefits

• High Corrosion Resistance: Made from durable stainless steel, perfect for external walls, coastal environments, and damp internal locations where galvanized mesh is unsuitable.

• Superior Mechanical Key: Precision diamond pattern grips base coats securely, ensuring maximum keying for wet renders and plasters.

• Anti-Crack Reinforcement: Disperses thermal stress and structural movement to prevent surface cracking along stress points, door frames, and dissimilar masonry.

• Easy to Handle & Cut: Standard 2500mm x 700mm sheet dimensions allow quick coverage over large surface areas while remaining easy to trim to size using tin snips.

• Fire Rated Safety: Non-combustible material meeting standard Class A1 fire safety requirements.

Deliveries will be made with either crane or tail lift off load, if you have any specific requirement or access issues please let us know in the comments section at checkout. We offer home and site delivery, however this will only be possible if the surface is firm and level, such as concrete, block paving and tarmac etc and at the driver’s discretion. If applicable, the pallet truck will not operate on any uneven or soft surface such as grass or gravel or on steep slopes. If the pallet is left at the home and site kerb side it will then be your responsibility to transfer the product to your preferred area. If there is an access issue for large vehicles (the size of a refuse lorry etc) on the roads leading to your property, please let us know via the comments section at checkout.
